Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Ipswich Borough Council procured plastic waste and rubbish containers and bins in varying sizes, classed as goods. The requirement supports the Council’s waste-management operations and covers delivery in the East of England. The buying organisation is Ipswich Borough Council. The products are plastic bins rather than installation, maintenance or other associated services. Suppliers relevant to this requirement include manufacturers, distributors and wholesalers able to provide different bin sizes for a public-sector waste service. The stated requirement is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The selected supplier, Contenur (UK) Ltd, is itself recorded as an SME. This opportunity is therefore most relevant to businesses supplying plastic waste containers at council or other public-service scale, particularly those able to serve customers in the East of England.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender’s estimated value was £1,463,640. Ipswich Borough Council awarded the contract to Contenur (UK) Ltd for £1,219,700 on 10 September 2025. The contract period runs from 13 October 2025 to 31 March 2027. The requirement covered varying sizes of plastic bins, with delivery in the East of England. The procurement was identified as suitable for SMEs and not reserved for voluntary, community or social enterprises. The available record identifies the procurement as a goods contract and the framework call-off route; it does not set out a separate award-scoring breakdown. The award is active.

Although this contract has already been awarded, it provides a clear indication of Ipswich Borough Council’s purchasing requirement for plastic waste bins in varying sizes and the scale at which it uses a framework call-off. Businesses monitoring this buyer should be able to offer a range of plastic waste containers, fulfil public-sector orders reliably and support delivery across the East of England. SME status is compatible with the requirement, so smaller manufacturers, distributors and specialist wholesalers may be credible competitors when a comparable need returns. A supplier would need a dependable product range covering different bin sizes, suitable supply capacity and an established route for council deliveries. Framework access or another route into framework call-offs would also be commercially relevant, since this purchase was made through a framework agreement.
